Ultrahigh sensitive detection of tau protein as Alzheimer's biomarker via microfluidics and nanofunctionalized optical fiber sensors
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative illnesses displaying the highest death rate in the elderly. However, the existing AD diagnostic system remains elusive due to lack of a technology that ... -
Enhancing the infrared and visible emission properties of calcium silicate hydrate for radiative cooling using metamaterials
Two periodic structures composed of metal cylinders with different orientations are used to improve the solar reflection of calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) while maintaining its atmospheric emission. Interesting effects ... -
Design of multi-layered radiative cooling structures using evolutionary algorithms
In this work we present a novel way to design thinfilm radiative cooling metamaterials based on genetic algorithms. Three simulations with different design constraints have been done, resulting in three structures that ... -
Optomagnonics in dispersive media: magnon-photon coupling enhancement at the epsilon-near-zero frequency
Reaching strong light-matter coupling in solid-state systems has long been pursued for the implementation of scalable quantum devices. Here, we put forward a system based on a magnetized epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) medium, and ... -
Double-port slotted-antenna with multiple miniaturized radiators for wideband wireless communication systems and portable devices
Proof-of-concept is presented of a novel slot antenna structure with two excitation ports. Although this antenna provides a wide impedance bandwidth, its peak gain and optimum radiation efficiency are observed at its ... -
Methodology for sizing stand-alone hybrid systems: a case study of a traffic control system
This paper proposes a methodology for sizing stand-alone hybrid photovoltaic-wind power generation systems. This methodology makes it possible to optimise the overall performance of the stand-alone system components, based ... -
Phase reversal technique applied to fishnet metalenses
In this work, the fishnet metamaterial is applied to several converging metalenses by combining the zoning, reference phase, and phase reversal techniques. First, the zoning and reference phase techniques are implemented ... -
Comparison between capacitive and microstructured optical fiber soil moisture sensors
Soil moisture content has always been an important parameter to control because it is a deterministic factor for site-specific irrigation, seeding, transplanting, and compaction detection. In this work, a discrete sensor ... -
Experimental validation of a Ku-band dual circularly polarized metasurface antenna
The experimental validation of a Ku-band dual circularly polarized (CP) broadside-beam metasurface (MTS) antenna is presented. A radially modulated anisotropic single layer MTS has been synthesised employing sub-wavelength ... -
Label-free wavelength and phase detection based SMS fiber immunosensors optimized with cladding etching
The performance of E-SMS (Etched Singlemode-Multimode-Singlemode) optical fiber structures as immunosensors has been assessed by the implementation of antibody/antigen immunoassays. Through this procedure it has been ... -
Long period fiber grating for biosensing: an improved design methodology to enhance add-layer sensitivity
We present our theoretical study on the design of LPFG sensor where its add-layer sensitivity is enhanced. addlayer sensitivity quantifies the sensitivity of the sensor to the changes taking place within few tens of ... -
